An Angel in Provence

by Nancy Robards Thompson

She's landed a dream project: transforming an eighteenth-century rectory in Avignon into a summer home. But the client insists on hiring local furniture artisan Philippe Beaulieu--young, eccentric, irritatingly ... French. Their styles couldn't be more different; his ultramodern designs definitely clash with Rita's classic tastes. But as the saying goes, Vive la diffe rence! Working closely in the romantic Provenc ʹal countryside, the colleagues discover shared passions outside the studio, and recently widowed Rita throws herself into their affair with appropriate French e lan, never thinking her heart is at risk. But with her dreams so tantalizingly close, Rita must find the courage to take hold of them ... and never let them go.

I enjoyed the ease in which the story flowed. Liked that some events were unpredictable. Very well described. Makes you want to go to France and see for yourself its beauty and charm. Enjoy happy endings. Also liked that it was a love story about a woman in her 40's for a change.
